Description
Stretton Mill is an early 19th-century water mill, now disused. It is constructed of red brick with a stone ashlar plinth rising to the water level, and has a brown tile roof with toothed verge and eaves. The main building is approximately 18 metres long and three storeys high, with an attached single-storey wing. The windows are irregularly placed C19 casements. A door is located on the side of the gable front. Remnants of an undershot water wheel, including cast iron hoops, remain. A first-floor section contains two grindstone cases, bearing inset plaques that read ‘Kay and Hilton, Fleet Street, Liverpool 1854’. These cases include a grinding axle, gear, grain storage bins, and a bolter.
